Caracas, November 2 (RHC)-- Venezuela's Minister of Communication and Information, Jorge Rodríguez, has announced the capture of Argenis Vaca -- alias 'Vaquita' -- who was in charge of the finances of the Colombian paramilitary group 'Los Rastrojos.'

Vaca, who appears in one of the photos taken with Venezuelan so-called "president" Juan Guaidó during the operation to transfer him from Venezuela to Colombia, was wanted in both countries for the crimes of homicide, kidnapping, extortion, drug traffic and association to commit crimes.

Rodriguez has reported that Vaca, apprehended "in his area of influence," had in his possession "high caliber weapons and drugs.”

On September 20, Venezuela announced the capture of Iván Posso Pedrozo, alias 'Nandito', another member of 'Los Rastrojos,' who told in a video that the group provided security for the transfer of the opposition head who took pictures with them.

According to Posso Pedroza, the photos were taken as a guarantee "for the future," with the aim that in his hypothetical government, Guaido, would allow 'Los Rastrojos' to act freely in Venezuelan territory, "without military pressure."

So far, four leaders of the narco-paramilitary organization that participated in the operation have been arrested.  The crimes of homicide, kidnapping, extortion, drug trafficking and conspiracy are attributed to all of them.

Opposition leader Juan Guaido is currently under investigation by the Public Prosecutor's Office due to his links with 'Los Rastrojos,' which transferred him to Colombia last February.
